Strut the Rooster Plush (8") - Ty - Original Beanie Babies Series - (1997)

Strut the Rooster is a colorful vintage Ty Beanie Baby with a bright farmyard-inspired design and the playful character associated with classic Original Beanie Babies. Measuring approximately 8 inches, Strut features a soft pink, orange, and red tie-dyed plush body with vivid red wings and a matching tail. His red comb and wattle, yellow beak and feet, and black button-style eyes create a lively rooster appearance, while his seated shape gives him the compact, recognizable silhouette of a classic Ty farm-animal collectible. The varied tie-dye coloring can give individual plush examples slightly different visual patterns, adding character to each piece.

Strut's swing tag lists his birthday as March 8, 1996, and features a playful poem about his famous “cock-a-doodle-doo” call and his habit of waking everyone up. He was introduced in 1997 as a replacement for Doodle and retired in 1999, giving him an interesting place in the history of this particular Ty rooster design. Soft plush fabric combined with polyester fiber and P.E. pellet filling provides the lightweight, flexible construction associated with vintage Beanie Babies. Whether displayed with farm-animal plush, vintage Ty birds, or a larger Original Beanie Babies collection, Strut is an eye-catching collectible for rooster lovers and longtime Ty enthusiasts.
